Hey Andreas, I have no idea, sorry. Solaris support is very mysterious
to me, try asking Sun. They don't seem to care.

Why you are passing -fpic -fPIC in RUNTESTFLAGS seems like something to
explain and or explore (with somebody who cares about Solaris).

I am trying to fix up one INSTALL related issue for Solaris referenced
here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2003-04/msg00611.html

Circling for approval on that one....
